Well, I think I had a mosaic virus last January, so I tore out all the plants in my greenhouse. I let it freeze and then warmed it up again x3 with the hopes of killing off the flies and the virus. I also sprayed it each time with a light solution of bleach.

I just planted a bunch of new stuff and it looks like I might have it again. I've attached a picture of a cucumber seedling. Is this the mosaic virus or just what a normal cucumber seedling looks like?

IMHO it looks like normal cucumber leaves--they do tend to have wrinkly leaves.

It could also be edema - here is a good explanation. http://www.umass.edu/umext/floriculture/fact_sheets/greenhouse_management/edema.htm
